Reopening dates for Haven holiday parks after a pandemic hit 2020

Haven is launching a new holiday package selection for this year with plans to reopen sites this March.

The holiday giant employs thousands of staff across holiday parks in England, Scotland and Wales.

Last year was hit by lockdowns but it is hoped that restrictions will start to be eased by this spring as the weather improves and the percentage of the population vaccinated increases.

Sites are currently due to open on Friday March 12 - with bookings being taken from this date.

They are set to offer two types of holiday once they reopen.

“Through the pandemic in 2020 we launched our Haven Hideaway breaks as we wanted to ensure that we could offer some kind of holiday to guests but were unsure what facilities would be available,” said Gerard Tempest, chief marketing officer.

“Whilst during the season we were able to offer guests the chance to upgrade, to be able to access our pools and entertainment, our research showed that some guests, particularly those holidaying without children, were happy to not use our full facilities and were using the park to explore the local area, or relax by the coast.”

Guests can now choose the holiday option that suits their needs, rather than paying for facilities they may not wish to use. For guests selecting a Haven Stay break, they will receive their own self contained accommodation and access to Haven’s range of onsite restaurants and takeaways and supermarkets.

On a Haven Stay+Play guests also have the opportunity to use indoor and outdoor pools, experience daytime and evening entertainment and get access to book over 100 different activities from aerial adventures to karting.
